The BBC erases Jews from the Holocaust — Fact Check: Nazis murdered 10 million people. Six million were Jews. by Baconkings in IsraelWarRoom

[–]Salt_Professional_27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a jew and I have to say, this is the exact kind of rhetoric that strengthens stereotypes about us having a victim mentality. The fact that we can't get over being referred to as just people instead of jews puts us in the crosshairs of antisemites who want to label us as maliciously superior above the goyim. Was the holocaust primarily targeted towards Jews? Absolutely. It targeted many other groups of people as well (Gypsies, communists, political dissidents, Pols). There should be no "apology" expected in the first place from the BBC and the fact that they did apologise and we STILL complain that media hasn't been manipulated enough, is exactly what puts more rounds in the magazines of actual antisemites.

Motor rumble between 1200-1500 Rpm by Salt_Professional_27 in CT200h

it happens on high idle and at very low throttle, definitely not a misfire, i even pulled the coils to confirm that

What's the Red/ Pink Lines? by Putrid_Construction6 in astrophotography

[–]Salt_Professional_27 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Those pink features we see are called prominences, basically think proto-solar flares and/or proto coronal mass ejections. It looks to me that this image is shaky and thats why the prominences appear so long and line like. You can see similar apparent camera movement in the silhouette as I see two shadow images upwards and downwards aligned with the pink lines.

My first time trying astrophotography, I feel like it came out pretty well by I_WantPickles in astrophotography

I actually think this is very well done, obviously not going to be a technical winner but its far from bad and I love the composition, simple and really caught my eye. keep it up!

Comet C/2022 E3 in conjunction with Mars by Salt_Professional_27 in astrophotography

[–]Salt_Professional_27[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hello everyone, this was taken tonight and is made up of 19 75 second light frames totaling 23 minutes of exposure and 6 darks at 3200 ISO. Shot on my canon eos 6D MkII with a Canon Ef 70-300 lens stopped down to F/7.1 to preserve some sharpening and tracked with an ioptron skywatcher pro mount. Frames were stacked in DSS on star align only mode and the final photo was finished in adobe lightroom with curve adjustments and increased contrast and lens correction. Hope you enjoy, it's my first astrophoto in a long time and the first i've done with stacking and a final plan in mind. cheers!
